Whispering Cedars
Rest Relax Refresh Restore
A place for those in Christian ministry to be refreshed.
Our Mission
Promoting spiritual health for Christian leaders by providing a safe place for a time of refreshing and a listening ear for those serving in Christian ministry.
Our Vision
Provide a place where those serving in Christian ministry can find rest, relaxation, refreshment, restoration, and Spiritual renewal in an environment that promotes stillness before the Lord to hear His gentle whisper. We offer a clean, quiet place to stay as well as being available to those with ministry hurts, experiencing ministry burnout, trauma, or just needing a neutral listening ear in a safe environment free of judgment and expectation.
Everything we do is focused on serving, encouraging and inspiring Christian leaders. Pastors and missionaries need to put effort into keeping their relationship with God and their spouses strong. Our purpose is to make that easier. We encourage guests to remove themselves from the rush, relax, be still before God and rest in Him.

Doug & Bernie Campbell
“Whispering Cedars is a quiet, relaxed location at the home of Doug and Bernie Campbell. Located in their basement, you can literally hide from the hustle and bustle of life, and let your life slow down. The accommodations are quite comfortable and modern. The atmosphere of Whispering Cedars is due to the hospitality and understanding of ministry of Doug and Bernie. This location is more than a stop to slow down and relax; it is the warm and inviting interaction with the Campbells. With the ministry I am with, I have done extensive travel and my time with Doug and Bernie ranks as one of the most enjoyable and encouraging opportunities I have had with hosts. Our morning together as we shared ministry experiences, listening to each other’s joys and miseries of ministry, caused the time to quickly evaporate. They truly have a ministry heart and understanding that will encourage you, if you need a fellow minister’s ear.”

"I love the privacy of Whispering Cedars. It is quiet, clean and updated. It was such a luxury to have the entire floor to ourselves, complete with a kitchenette, sitting area, bathroom, and dining area. We love that we got to enjoy it in the context of genuine friendship with Doug and Bernie. We’ll be back!”
